Something a little different this time! There's always something crafty going on in my house. If I'm not scribing something, then the other one is scribbling something. So we decided why not do something that ties together this time! Ways.Unseen on instagram offers up some fantastic maps and isometric room drawings. Always a nice little … Continue reading The Cathedral

Outrun – a midweek flash fiction story
I couldn't see. It took a long time for me to be able to make out shapes at all. Wherever I had ended up this time obviously had a star giving off light with some extreme wavelengths. I managed to pull out some night vision goggles from my pack and slip them over my eyes. … Continue reading Outrun – a midweek flash fiction story
Digging – a MidWeek Flash story
Well damn. It’s bad enough having to pick apart the inside of the coffin. The splinters under my nails were irritating to say the least but it was only compounded by the soil. I cannot in all honesty recommend trying to dig your way up, with bare hands. Gravity, in this situation, is not your … Continue reading Digging – a MidWeek Flash story
Avalon and Albion
For those who follow me on Twitter, you may already know about a project I've been working on with Cloaked Press. If not, I'm about to tell you, but bear with me a moment first. Considering not too many years ago, I thought writing short stories was impossible, I have amazed no-one more than myself … Continue reading Avalon and Albion
Hey Mr DJ – a flash fiction tale
I saw him staring down at my world. I shouldn’t have been able to see him. He shouldn’t have been there watching. I knew he appeared differently to everyone in a world; it was like a chameleon mechanism. Here I could see a giant figure looming over, a metallic face lit up with strobe lights. … Continue reading Hey Mr DJ – a flash fiction tale
Fever – a flash fiction story
I watched hopelessly as he writhed on the bed, muscles spasming in agony. He’d been steadily getting worse all evening and I had no idea what to do or who to call. Coming up to the cabin was supposed to keep us safe and out of the way while the others figured out the whole … Continue reading Fever – a flash fiction story
Warrior within – a prompt flash fiction
She sat on the edge of the chair, her limbs draw tightly in as if to make herself occupy the smallest possible space. Around her the others moved and talked. She nodded at opportune moments and gave half smiles. Occasionally her lips parted to say something but the moment passed and her silence remained. When … Continue reading Warrior within – a prompt flash fiction
Hidden in black and white (a flash fiction)
She trailed behind the others as they walked. No longer did they try and coax words out of her, encourage her to join in with the group. They had long since given up getting any kind of interaction. They had decided something had happened to make her this way, that was why she was alone … Continue reading Hidden in black and white (a flash fiction)
Time and tales (a prompt short story)
She sighs and sits on the stool, looking out of the window as the sun dips lower in the sky. Beams burst through the glass and bathe her in glowing patches. For a moment it seems as if she has forgotten but then her tired voice rings out. “So you’ve come for a story too … Continue reading Time and tales (a prompt short story)
Fictional Failures
“You spend all your time up here staring at that page.” “I’m writing. That’s part of it.” I placed the pen back on the table forcibly and looked up at him, trying to make my expression as pointed as possible. “Don’t you have to put the pen on the paper?” His arms were folded over … Continue reading Fictional Failures
